I've been a fan of Mary Higgins Clark for a long time. Her books are always interesting and a fast read. This new one is no exception ----- quick paced, trying to find the person who killed a young girl after a high school party. It's never who you think it will be & the reason is always something you didn't think of.

I believe some of us readers have become jaded after reading so many of the great mysteries by Mary Higgins Clark. There are quite a few reviews that seem to be discontented. From what I see, she has given us more of what we have loved since picking up "Where Are the Children?". The story starts with a compelling crime that is complicated to solve. There is a main character we like and at least one detective or policeman that we feel we can trust. Alongside of these two we view the scene in a panoramic way in bits and pieces-- a bit like how it feels to begin working on a jigsaw puzzle. Clark takes all those loose ends and ties them up in about 250 pages. She is also the queen of the plot twist taking a character who we see in benign or positive ways and making him or her the culprit.

I definitely appreciate the contributions Mary Higgins Clark has made to the mystery genre and hope she will be able to continue writing for many years in the future.

Yet another Mary Higgins Clark book that I could not put down and finished in a day! Her short chapters and fast paced storyline made this a very quick read as well as an enjoyable one. She does a great job of creating characters that I get invested in and then I just want to see how their story turns out.
